bacon sighting

Bacon bit: I was in the town of Ferrara, Italy when I went into the local liquor store. The owner had an enormous oil by Bacon mounted on a chair. He told me his wife thought it was ugly and he was forced to keep it there. He said he had bought it as an investment. I was pretty astonished at the sight. Only later did I realize it was a perfect place for FB: right in front of the racks of booze.
